Fujifilm Claims to be Worldwide Nr. 2 in Mirrorless Market and Fujifilm GFX 50S Firmware Update Details in English

Fujifilm GFX

The Spanish site Fujistas was at the Fujifilm GFX 50R launch event. They wrote about it on their blog here (translation), and amongst the others, they shared the following tidbits:

  • Fujifilm claims to be worldwide Nr.2 mirrorless camera manufacturer
  • they demonstrated the crop capabilities of the Fujifilm GFX 100 Megapixel camera and they were extremely impressed

If Fujifilm’s statement is correct, then Fuji surpassed Panasonic and Olympus, and, considering also DSLRs, they are now 4th behind Sony, Nikon and Canon.

Also, a few days ago we shared some Chinese Fujifilm media slides that showed us the details of the upcoming firmware update for Fujifilm GFX 50S. However, we struggled a bit with the translation.

Now Fujistas shared the English version of the slide (see above). The firmware update for Fujifilm GFX50S will bring the following new functions:

  • 35mm Format Mode with GF lens and Fujinon HC lenses
  • Quick Eye-sensor response for Finder
  • Simultaneous delete for RAW and JPG
  • EVF/LCD White point color customization

Capture One 11 Photographer’s Guide eBook now With Special Discount for FujiRumors Readers

Photographer’s Guide to Capture One 11 – $4 discount with code ffr4

Capture One eBook

Now that Capture One finally fully supports the Fujifilm X and GFX system, I can see quite some Fujifilm X shooters leaving Lightroom to get Capture One. Check out the dedicated Capture One Fujifilm page.

Remember that you save from 5% to 10% on Capture One (depending on which version you choose), by using code “AMBFR” (Full list of product/pricing options  below).

And for those, who make the switch, you might be interested to get Nils Wille Christoffersen ebook “Photographer’s Guide to Capture One 11“, with $4 discount if you use code “ffr4“.

Photographer’s Guide to Capture One 11 is meant for anybody that is new to Capture One Pro as well as immediate users that want to expand their knowledge of certain tools or features. Some basic knowledge of image editing from other programs is highly recommended, making this the perfect book if you are coming from Adobe Lightroom or other raw converters.”

The eBook is technically based on Capture One 11.1 as there has been no new features since added besides the Fujifilm versions (11.3) and some Cultural Heritage version specific features (11.2). The Pro versions (Pro and Pro Fujifilm) is thus fully covered.

Use discount code “ffr4” and it will take $4 off the normal $19 price (+VAT if applicable)
